Lakkhipur, May 10 (bdnews24.com) — More than 24 hours have passed since the death of Shabana Begum, the latest victim of religious decrees, but the law keepers are yet to report an arrest in the case.

Her family is allegedly being pressured by the perpetrators to withdraw the case.

Shabana, 18, committed suicide on Sunday consuming by poison after her family was ostracised for 15 days upon a Fatwa from the influential people of the village, claiming she had illicit relations with her uncle, Mohammad Ripon, 20.
